Finally a friendly worth watching. Fantastic fixture, brings back loads of memories. I was 6 when the World Cup 70 was on, can remember the old man going mental about how great Pele was. But his favourite was Garrincha, he used to make me and my brothers line up in a wall and try and do banana shots round us!! Think social services would be involved these days!! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...Greatest-Brazilian-players.html#axzz2JgIjiHwz Also a terrific read about Bobby Moore, who dies 20 years ago at age 51. Tragic. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...-Brazil-Jeff-Powell-tributes-Bobby-Moore.html
I expect us to score at least once. But I expect Brazil to match that and possibly go further. England 2-3 Brazil
Brazil should win comfortably, there is a few players im looking forward to seeing Dante, Munich defender on top form Paulinho, Strong, powerful Corinthians player linked with Europe's top Clubs Ronaldinho for old times stake Lucas Moura, just signed for PSG Previously, he had been at Sao Paulo, playmaker Hulk sold his soul for $$$$$$$$$$ and now is a forgotten man at Zenit St Petersburg Neymar, Santos, the World's top clubs are queuing up to buy the new Pele Im going for a 3-0 Brazil result
That's one more time than me. I've never seen it. Closest that I remember us getting to beating them was probably 2002 WC.
That picture of Pele and Bobby Moore the Best Ever. What would they be worth in todays market in there prime ?
Unless you're only talking competitively then they only secured an injury time equalizer back in 2007 at Wembley, so we were pretty close there.
I'd like to see a strong team rather than yet anotther 'experiement', something like: Hart Johnson Cahill Lescott Cole Lampard Barry Gerrard Wilshere Walcott Rooney
Me too, it was a shame Hodgson didn't start him v Italy in the Euros upfront maybe we could have got a jump on them in that game
Brazil's only weak spot is the aging Keeper, and i doubt Ronaldinho will have the legs in Midfield as he once did
I'm supposed to be there tonight, but I did my ankle in on Sunday and I can hardly walk at the moment, so I'm having to make do with watching it on the telly.
Nobody who saw me injure myself on Sunday, would confuse me with Jermaine Defoe. Jermaine Jackson maybe.
Hart Johnson Lescott Cahill Cole Lennon Gerrard Wilshere Milner Rooney Walcott That's what I'd play, although if Sturridge was fit I'd have him playing ahead of Rooney.
Hart Walker Cahill Lescott Baines Wilshere Gerrard Lennon Rooney Chamberlain Walcott That's what I'd like to see, I expect to see something like Hart Johnson Smalling Cahill Lescott Cole Barry Jones Milner Parker Rooney
